Happy Birthday to Daddy!!!!!

today is Daddy's --th  birthday!!! 
Daddy has been a tremendous blessing to me, and to tons of other people! I have never met someone that didn't immediately like Daddy! Fun-loving, caring, and can give very Godly advice, and I am blessed to call him Daddy!!! :)

From being a leader in the Republican party at the grassroots level, to being an Elder in our church. From ministering to all our customers, to preforming wedding ceremonies(and those aren't as unconnected as they seem.... :), Daddy blesses people in several areas of his life.

So, I compiled several pictures of the adventures and fun times we've had with him! 


Daddy and me....20 years ago!!! :)


Daddy and one of his favorite dogs



No, he is not choking himself - he is showing us his hand motions that he came up with to remember the order of the plagues in Egypt, and this is death of the first born!


Daddy teaching us during a Passover Seder



Enjoying a family dinner for Hannah's birthday, which always includes sharing stories and lots of laughing!!!
